    1) The document discusses maps and scale diagrams, providing examples of how scale ratios such as 1:50 and 1:200,000 are used to relate distances on a map to actual ground distances. 2) It includes questions to test understanding of using scale ratios to determine actual distances and sizes when only the scale representation is given, such as finding the length of a playing field from its 40cm representation on a 1:200 scale map. 3) Questions involve determining sizes of real objects like land plots and cars from their scaled down representations on maps or models using scale ratios like 1:250 and 1:50.

    WORKSHEET ON TOPIC ON MAPS AND SCALE DIAGRAMS.

    Page (225-226) Exercise 24.1


    The scale of a map is often given as a ratio . For example a scale of 1 : 200,000
    Means that 1 cm on the map is 200,000 cm or 2000m or 2km on the ground .
    EXAMPLE 1 : A plan of house may be drawn to a scale of 1:50.This means
    that 1 :cm on the plan is equivalent to 50 cm on the ground.

    EXAMPLE 2 : A scale plan of the room is drawn to a scale of 1 : 50 .The room


    Is 8 cm long on the plan.

    Questions for self evaluations.


    Q 1. A plan of a playing field is drawn to a scale of 1: 200. A play area 40 cm long on the
    plan. How long is it on the field?

    Q 2. The plot of land for a house is shown on the plan with a scale of 1 : 250. The plot is
    27cm. wide on the plan . How wide is the real plot of land?
    Q3. A model car is 8.5 cm long .The scale is 1 : 50 .How long is the real car?

    Q4. The scale used to make a toy lion is 1 : 40 scale. The toy is 5.2 cm long. How long is the real
    lion?

    Q5. A map has a scale of 1 : 100,000. How far is a journey which measures 20 cm on the map?
    Q6. A map has a scale o f 1 : 250000. How far is a journey which measures 5.5 cm on the map?

    Q 7. A map has a scale of 1 : 20,000. How far is a which measures 40cm on the map?
